Default Tips On How To Get The Best Out Of Tech Support A35 -S159

You have noticed, I hope, that no "blamed" the jerks that ORIGINATE the
viruses, or the jerks that KNOWINGLY AND INTENTIONALLY spread the viruses.

Rocky, I didn't blame anyone!! Aren't we here to help ;-); As some
posters did, indeed! What could I have done differently? I bought this
Toshiba A35-S159 with a (to me!) unfamiliar Windows XP, and I couldn't
even register the Norton AV. It must have happened right after I plugged
in the phone connection, because it didn't let me do any registering.
(But I did get connected to YAHOO for 10-15 minutes several times).

I can imagine that this sort of thing happened to many other PC buyers,
because before me (w/i 2 hours) 4 other people bought the same A35-S159.

P.S. Please hold off with your sarcastic "blame yourself" bit, because
folks aren't all experts like you. Why was the AV pg. not operational?

(out
of the box!) system" - blame yourself.
